Misty
We are so happy you are here!! Helping you look and feel your best in the images we create starts with getting to know and love you. We at Photography by Misty promise not only painless, but fun, and most importantly, professional and genuine results.
If you call or text us at 214.235.3239, I'll be your initial contact. We will get to know one another and brainstorm about the possibilities. I may also be your photographer or I may introduce you to someone else on the team. Regardless, you'll be in great hands no matter which one of us caters to your needs.
Hey, feel free to give me a call even if you're new in town or calling from out of town and need a local resource. More than likely, I know the right person who you can trust for both your professional and personal needs.
Meet Your Photography & Videography Team
Jenny
Product/Headshots/Event Photographer (and editing, too)
We first met Jenny at a fancy little children's boutique Cat and the Fiddle, where Photography by Misty created children's portraits with live bunnies & Jolly Ole St Nick. When it came time to hire help, Jenny said she was interested and the rest has blossomed into a talented photographer and an everlasting friendship.
Hi, I’m Jenny. Although my first several years with Photography by Misty were spent behind the scenes, 10 years ago I mentioned I'd like to start working behind the camera. Although a lot more goes into a great portrait than I first imagined, after side-by-side training, lots of questions, answers and adjustments, together, we'll create the professional results you have come to appreciate with PBM. If your team is needing updated headshots or your company is having a conference, my years of training and experience make me an obvious choice. Misty admires that I am coachable (and now often coach her). Why? I have now taken on editing for PBM, which, in turn, makes me a better photographer.
Although I love capturing genuine portraits for you, I spend most days with my girl Marlee, still dating the hubs Seth, knitting, exercising, going to school and traveling.
KK
Photographer/Assistant
Hi, I'm Kunjal, but most people call me K.K.. I've been working as an assistant for Misty for more than a year now, helping out behind the scenes. Photography has become my passion, especially since the COVID pandemic. Capturing meaningful moments through photography is something I truly enjoy, and I'm always looking for ways to improve my techniques and knowledge.
My journey toward becoming a professional photographer started with a chance encounter with Misty, who is a photography teacher and owner. During a photography class, I was inspired by her expertise and decided to pursue my passion even further.
Since then, I've been on a continuous learning journey, seeking out wisdom and techniques from experienced photographers. Currently, I provide assistant services at photography shoots, corporate headshots, and other events for our team of photographers.
In my free time, I enjoy connecting with people, binge-watching my favorite shows, spending time with my dog and kids. Additionally, I am an expert in organizing.
Lauren
Headshot, Event & Branding Photographer
We first hired Lauren as a model for one of our branding shoots. She was such a Rockstar, Misty had to know more. From model to assistant to go-to photographer (she, coincidentally was already a photographer when we met her), it's been fun to watch Lauren mature in her creative endeavors.
Lauren here! Born with a creative eye, I chose photography as my outlet, pursuing diligently to make it my career. Aa a former model, I enjoy the challenge of posing groups and individuals, helping clients feel beautiful & comfortable, enabling me to photograph their genuine selves. I take pride in providing tips and tricks to produce that just-right portrait.
While my fave shoots are one-on-one interactions, PBM's owner Misty and Editor/Photographer most admires my story-telling corporate-event images.
When not working, you can find me communing with friends at barre class or exploring small towns in my native great State of Texas.
Jesse
Photographer
Misty first met Jesse at a Canon class. She knew he'd be the perfect fit as one of our photographers. Jesse is gracious, always smiling and loves his family. People-first is a quality that goes a long way under the PBM umbrella.
Hi, my name is Jesse Bennett. Born and raised in NY, not NYC but 1 hour north! I've been a DFW resident for more than 10 years and have grown to love Texas. My interest in photography started in 2021, when we were expecting my first daughter, wanting to capture a lifetime of moments.
Ramsey
Video Services
When you meet someone like Demi (photographer/videographer above), your world begins to change one person at a time. Misty's sister-in-law Brenda introduced her to Demi. When the team needed models, Demi introduced us to Lauren. When Demi needed an additional videographer for a PBMisty project, she introduced us to Ramsey. Keep them coming, Demi!! Ramsey is not just a fantastic cinematography, but he is also one heck of a guy.
Ramsey has yet to send us a bio, prolly because he doesn't like to talk about himself. This also makes it hard for us to tell you more about him personally. What we do know, however, is he produces some really great video content.
Ramsey's visual story-telling skills will make your clients sit up and pay attention (and pick up that phone, too).
See our Video, too and Product Services pages to see what all the hype is about.
An
Photographer, specializing in events & headshots
What began as a student/teacher relationship has evolved into An working with the Photography by Misty Team. See, An was a student in Misty's Collin College class "How to Build a Photography Business."
An is a rockstar of a person. While the USA is the country he appreciates the most, An returns to Vietnam for a month every year to distribute life-saving resources. Throughout the remainder of the year, he works tirelessly with his non-profit Quy Ngheo Nhan - Viet Aid Fund to raise money for the people of his homeland. Upon his arrival back into the states, however he literally kisses the ground. We are proud of not only An's photography work, but his commitment to others and how much he appreciates the privilege of living in the United States of America.

Ezra
Graphics / Assistant
While searching for assistants, Misty went on a field trip with another local photographer who was teaching at Collin College's continuing education campus. And there was Ezra. Willing to learn and grow. Ezra tackles new technology with an open mind and dedication, and, most importantly, treats our clients with the grace and respect they deserve.
Welcome! My name is Ezra! I went to a liberal arts high school in Dallas and during my time there realized I have an eye and passion for creativity. I studied graphic design in college and earned an associates degree for design communication. However, while doing an internship for graphic design, I realized I had even more creative potential beyond making logos. This is when my journey with photography began! With my never ending desire to capture memories with my friends, I realized that I love the art of doing just that- capturing memories! Photos are all we have to keep these memories sacred, and I believe they are the most important aspect of art. So, I am currently studying photography at Collin College and am excited to take what I have learned and apply it to the wonderful team at Photography By Misty!

Olivia
Blogger/Newsletter/Makeup Artist
Hi! My name is Olivia, and I started working for Misty in June 2024. I like to think of myself as a jack-of-all-trades, but a master in some areas. Currently at Photography by Misty, I write blogs and newsletters, provide makeup services as needed, assist photographers on various shoots, help Misty with administrative tasks, and collaborate with her to develop creative ways to utilize our services.
I am very grateful for the artistic freedom Misty allows me, enabling me to explore different mediums throughout our projects. I can honestly say I never feel bored at work! Whether I'm meeting new clients, working with those I have already come to know, or spending time with our wonderful team, I'm always met with excitement and new opportunities to learn. It's a dream job, and I'm excited to see where the future takes us!
Outside of work, I enjoy several hobbies, including taking pictures of random things I encounter, traveling, painting, drawing, making music, playing with my dog, reading, walking, practicing yoga, doing puzzles, and occasionally doomscrolling on my phone.
Chief of Smooth Operations
Hello, Y'all, I’m Chelle - the one making sure everything behind the scenes runs like clockwork. From scheduling to client communication, I keep all the moving pieces aligned so every experience feels effortless from start to finish. Making sure our clients enjoy a seamless, stress-free experience bring me joy..
Every event or session is a little puzzle, and I make sure all the pieces fit perfectly. I thrive on organization, clear communication, and creating a seamless journey for both our clients and team. If it needs coordinating, confirming, or double-checking—I’m already on it. When I’m not keeping things on track, you’ll find me exploring new ideas, picking up fun skills, or recharging so I can show up ready to make magic happen—for our team and our clients!
Off the clock, I’m a proud mom to three amazing girls. We love filling our days with little adventures, lots of laughter, and cozy moments at home. Whether we’re out exploring or just enjoying quiet time together, those are the moments that mean everything to me.
Extra Extra!!
Speedy, Strategic Scout
The Smooth Operator Behind the Scenes
Behind every seamless on-line interaction, every new service strategy, and all those things that slow the team down … there’s Speedy.
Speedy, PBM’s Strategic Scout, is the behind-the-scenes force at Photography by Misty—Always in motion, always observing, Speedy operates with quiet precision—scouting what works, what can improve, and what will make life simpler for the PBM Team.
Ultimately, Speedy allows us to focus on what’s important - you, the client.
Like all of us, Speedy is a work-in-progress and falls under the same checks-and-balances guidelines as the rest of the team.
John Michael
Interactive Event Photography
What’s up y’all – I’m John Michael. I get to do the awesome photo booth stuff, or as we like to call it: interactive photography. I love trying new things & pioneering new routes, which makes being in a place where I get to custom design a new experience for each client even more awesome. Planning events and watching them come together, to me, is like a person imagining their very own landscape and then painting it on a canvas. So, the fact that I get to be a part of so many people’s creations is a beautiful thing. If you don’t catch me at your cousin’s wedding, you might find me at UPS, where I work part time in the mornings. If I’m not working, I am probably reading or exercising; or, if it’s the weekend, out exploring with my girlfriend and family.
Glamorous from Sunup to Sundown
Hair & Makeup Artist
We first met Kerstie, Kristin and Chelsea at Marbles Beuaty - we are do miss that place. The best blowouts in town, for sure. On the positive side, we at PBMisty have continued using these girls' services.
They all have a little something special (in addition to their stellar makeup and hair skills. If you book their services, make plans that night. You won't want to waste being perfectly beautified.
